BSNL reveals the plan after the launch of Reliance Jio, which claims to offer 1GB 4G data for just Rs.50. BSNL will offer this new plan only for new customers. Existing users can’t change to this broadband plan.

According to BSNL, if customers download continuously, they will be able to download up to 300GB data per month just by paying Rs.249. Users will get 2Mbps (256KBps) speed up to 1GB, and the speed will be 1Mbps (128KBps) after that for the whole month. 300GB per month data usage is only possible if you download/upload continuously for 30 days! Using the 1Mbps speed, you can only download less than 450MB per hours! That is only if the line gets full speed.

“BSNL is going to launch a very cost-effective and affordable promotional unlimited Broadband plan ‘Experience Unlimited BB 249’ from September 9, 2016,” the telecom PSU said in a statement.

Unlimited free calls between 9PM to 7PM & on all Sundays, to any network in India.
